Exploring Fire Roller Shutters: A Comprehensive Guide
A typical fire shutter has slatted galvanized steel, with the gauge of steel used depending on the width of the opening it’s for; wider doors require thicker slats to increase the integrity of the shutter. They are fitted into metal guides on both sides of an opening or doorway, allowing them to be easily rolled down during an emergency by a fire alarm or smoke detector to create a safe barrier and seal off the escape route.
In order to achieve the coveted integrity rating, the fire shutter must be precisely installed and configured according to its manufacturer’s technological assembly procedure. This includes mechanical pre-test conditioning, a cycle test, ability to release and self-closing tests being observed by the manufacturer and notified body.
